NETWORK COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A network communication system has a number of user stations (2, 3, 4) which are connected via a data network to a remote chat server hosting chat room channels (5, 6, 7). Software is provided with a multi-agents structure that is able to sample the chat content of all channels. The software also makes recommendations to the individual users of the system concerning links to other users, chat channels and resources on the network by parsing the chat content and by making use of a keyword-based model of interest. The system is provided with a global chatter web server (1) that includes a generator for generating dynamic links between the individual user's stored profile. Links are generated on the basis of the real-time analysis of the user's chat, between the user's ongoing chat session and the other chat room channels in which related topics are treated in ongoing chat conversations or were discussed in previous chat conversations. The generation of dynamic links is independently of the specific system where the chat room channels are hosted, so that chat room channels from different chat servers in different parts of the world can be linked without a need for the user to log onto a new chat room channel to share part of their conversation.
